    The endgame is being raptured. They believe that Israel will rise to a great power, but that Islam will then destroy it. And that will bring the second coming of Jesus and the rapture. So they’ll be wisked away to heaven as the get to watch the woke and brown burn on earth.

      90% of billionaires don’t believe this. They just don’t think that far enough. They’re thinking how to grow their wealth over the next 3 months.

        Lol, only those filthy peasant millionaires that only have a few hundred million have to think about their growth over the next 3 months. Billionaires own a firm to do that so they can focus on philanthropy and how to bring about the end of the world so they can get to heaven without having to die.

          There are certainly some like this, but I think a similarly eschatological view, only centered on AI is becoming just as (more?) common. They think they’re sparking the end times and the rapture, but they’ll be taken up into the arms of machines of loving grace instead of Jesus.
